Hair Makeover!

My hairdresser is amazing.

I have been getting so bored with my look lately. I don’t like to change my up makeup too much; that requires more effort than it should. And plastic surgery is way too expensive. That last comment was a joke.

So obviously, the next best thing was to do something different with my hair. I hadn’t dyed my hair in years – seriously, years. It’s been virgin hair for a while now, and I wasn’t super keen on getting a crazy new haircut. But, I did need a haircut, so I figured that with all of the change going on lately, why not change my hair colour too. The last few weeks of Pinterest-ing different hair styles and colours have pushed me to want a nice, rich chocolate brown, so…

Here it is!

Doesn’t look too shabby, does it? I’m super digging the cut, too. Just the right amount of layers, a bit of a side bang, and about an inch and a half shorter. Here’s a quick before and after:

Going lighter is a bigger commitment than going darker, and roots are much more manageable when your hair is already similar to the colour you’re dying it. The darkness itself will eventually fade out a bit, but I’m absolutely in love with the colour. It makes my green eyes pop more than they already do. I still look pale, but the contrast between the dark hair and lighter skin is kind of on point.
